Hi - I have been looking for over 2 days. How do I import all my data (emails, addresses calendar) from Outlook to Thunderbird.

I have tried Import tool within Thunderbird - import from Outlook. I tried MailStore and was totally confused - the terminology was strange. I managed to make an archive - it took ages to find where it was and I still do not know the file extension.

No videos...nothing.

Thanks

Greetings My Thunderbird automatically updated to 128.7.0 which prevents me opening the programme. Occurred while on holiday in Italy so was not sure if a local problem related to wi-fi access.

Dialogue box appears: Error: platform version 128.7.0 not compatible with miniversion >= 128.6.0

How can I overcome the impasse?

Is it possible to go back to an older version of Thunderbird? The new version without the columns is annoying. I like to sort via columns and can't with the 6.0 version. I'm also not thrilled with the vertical scroll bars that like to play peek-a0boo with you. Just leave then there. Stop being fancy.

As stated above, as of Jan 13th, the date of the last update, I can no longer download any email from the Yahoo/AT&T server. My Gmail email downloads like before the update. Did anything change to influence my AT&T account? I have no issues with accessing the email online, or my phone, so the AT&T email account still works the same everywhere but in Thunderbird.

I have had issues with thunderbird. I use it to email customer for my Mitchell 1 software. I have used it since 2017. I have had to uninstall it and reinstall it or update it a few times over the years. It would not work this week. So I was going to uninstall/reinstall it. It will not let me uninstall it. It gives me a error that it needs to reboot to update. I have click yes and no many times. It has restarted my pc but it still gives me the same message. I have also tried to install it and it will show me the same message.

My attempts to install Thunderbird on my new Lenovo computer always fail and end with a notice saying that the failure is due to the application being 'malformed'. I use Google as my search engine.

My old computer (also Lenovo) happily ran Thunderbird on Google.

Please help Thunderbird is by far the best email service I have used.

Was updated to 128.6.0 overnight. Next day, blank screens and records. C-drive says profiles95gxxxxx.default is 30.2GB. 20,194 files, 653 folders. After some use following loading of accounts, Profile 'in use' in Tbird/help/ troubleshooting/profiles/ is s95gxxxxx.default 81.8 MB, 2375 files, 7 folders. The profile number is identical in both sets. I noticed that my laptop is 64-bit, but the update was 32-bit. How can I retrieve my 30.2 GB of records into Tbird and keep the 81.8MB set as a separate profile? Frustrated-but-hopeful.

Hello: tbird nebula 128.6.0esr w11p. I want to put my 2024 (esp gmail acct) mail into a new profile, keep that profile as mere backup. I've used systools gmail backup & takeout to make what looks like (it opened as a pdf, I think) a successful .mbox file now on my desktop. I've searched the posts here (48 listed) & googled (UPenn has only real answers, but seem too sketchy for me), but no real assurance what I want to do will work. I have created new tbird profiles over the yrs w/no trouble but not for this purpose. But let's say I can successfully create a new profile, & where I want it. So... -do I just create the profile -do I (a) create all the accts (b) just click the "import" fcns in tbird tools (I don't need to remove anything emailish in the new inbox (for example) that tbird put there, since I would not have moved anything from current active tbird profile --right?). And (c) tbird would convert the mbox file(s) from the systools/takeout folder I designate, and the mail in "inbox" & "inbox.msf" folders (for example) would magically happen in the new profile, as converted from that mbox?

 Thank you.

Also, I get an error message whenever I try to send an email, saying it could not be sent because connecting to SMTP server secure219.inmotionhosting.com failed. Please verify that your SMTP server setting is correct and try again, or else contact your network administrator. I don't think the problem is with inmotionhosting because my husband can send email from his computer. I suspect the problem is with my Thunderbird setup.
